Azetidine Synthesis offers a comprehensive exploration of various methods for the synthesis of azetidines, a class of heterocyclic compounds with diverse applications. The significance of azetidine synthesis has grown largely due to the importance of these molecules as constituents of antibiotics. Chapters cover different synthetic pathways, starting with the general synthesis of azetidines and progressing to specific methods using various starting materials. From the copper-catalyzed synthesis of azetidines from nitrones to the synthesis from isoxazoles, oxazines, and diazo compounds, each chapter delves into the unique strategies and mechanisms involved.Rhodium-cat... approaches, cycloaddition reactions of imines to carbonyl compounds, and the use of isocyanides and isocyanates for azetidine synthesis are discussed in detail. The book also explores photochemical methods for azetidine synthesis, including the photochemical synthesis of fused azetidines. By providing a comprehensive overview of diverse synthetic routes to azetidines, this book serves as a valuable resource for researchers and practitioners in the field of organic chemistry, offering insights into the versatility and potential applications of these important heterocyclic compounds.

Chemometrics: Data Treatment and Applications demonstrates best practices for treating real-world analytical instrument data and how to apply chemometrics to this data. Rather than focusing on the mathematical theory involved in chemometrics, the book is meant for the industrial chemist, academics, and advanced students that want to use chemometrics in practice. Case studies on several applications are presented. Unlike existing literature, this book focuses on best practices, practical realities, and challenges when treating data, rather than on the mathematical theory. It also provides basic information on chemometrics and the best practices used to treat data from different analytical instruments.The book is written primarily for analytic chemists as practitioners in analytical laboratories and other industries. It will also be useful to academics and graduate, masters and postdoc students chiefly working in analytical chemistry who want to improve the practical aspects of their research activities.
